As they say it me often than not, that with the best things, comes the confusion to choose the correct option for it. The scenario is very much similar for the high end smartphones as well. The good thing is that for most of the high end Android Smartphones, Google has either released the upgrade to Android L or is going to release it soon enough. Now consider the situation where your Smartphone has already received the upgrade to Android L, you must be confused about the various applications to use for your smartphone.
